Re: Brett Favre Retires

He cried because the team/org he loyally respected couldn't deliver him the horses he needed to get another SB MVP, he's selfish. It was all cued up for him to be the conquering hero but he feel on his face. A younger upstart beat him in his own crib.
Randy Moss is Brady's date for the next 3 years. How many years could Brett give him? One, two. He's just too old for Moss. Brady gave Moss 23 TDs. Don't even go there Brett.
Good nite sweet prince.

Re: Brett Favre Retires

I knew he wouldn't stay retired long...

Three days after a conference call with Green Bay Packers team officials on Tuesday in which quarterback Brett Favre emphatically expressed his desire to play in 2008, Favre on Friday formally asked for his contractual release from the Packers in a letter, sources close to Favre and the team said.
The letter was sent by Favre's agent, James "Bus" Cook, via overnight mail on Thursday and arrived at the Packers facility Friday morning.
Cook, on behalf of Favre, expressed a desire to have an amicable parting, as the Packers have been reluctant to embrace his return. Favre announced his retirement in early March.

During a conference call on Tuesday that included Packers general manager Ted Thompson, Packers coach Mike McCarthy, Favre and Cook, sources say that the quarterback stated emphatically that he wanted to play again.

Packers org is probably trying to pretend it got lost in the mail...

Re: Brett Favre Retires

Either Brett spells his name wrong or everybody pronounces it wrong. It should either be spelled Farve or pronounced Favor.

Millen should hire him as player/mentor for Stanton and as a motivational figure to the entire Lions organization...including Millen himself.

Re: Brett Favre Retires

Fast facts: The Lions can't afford his contract, so no trade. If he's released, we couldn't afford his new contract. If he did come here, which I would support wholeheartedly, I couldn't say goodbye to Kitna fast enough. But Favre IS NOT A MENTOR. He made that clear when Rodgers was drafted.
